What is recorded here

Cromlech (site of) is a megalithic structure in Reisk, County Tipperary, Ireland. The feature stood on wet ground close to the foot of Knocknabansha Hill before removal sometime prior to 1884. Its map name suggests it may have been a megalithic tomb, though no account of the structure survives.

This feature, removed sometime prior to 1884 (OS Name Book, 1904) stood on wettish ground close to the foot of Knocknabansha Hill. There are no known accounts of it. The name 'Cromlech' applied to it on the original OS 6-inch map would suggest that it may have been a megalithic tomb.
